The stock went public back on July 31, 2025, and it's been a brutal buy ever since. When there's a massive sell-off in a stock's value, it usually means either the business is struggling mightily, and there are serious concerns about its prospects, or there's been a tremendous overreaction in the markets. So what explains what's happening to Figma (FIG +5.24%), a software design company that went public less than a year ago? Given all the growth it was achieving and the rosy expectations for its business, investors never stayed bullish on the stock. The stock is in the midst of what's become a seemingly endless free fall. In its second day of trading (back on Aug. 1, 2025), it hit a high of $142.92. On Monday, it traded at around $24. That's a mammoth six-month decline of 83%. Is there something fundamentally wrong with Figma's business that has growth-oriented investors justifiably worried about it, or is this another case of market overreaction, and could this be a no-brainer stock to buy right now? Is Figma's business in bad shape? The question you might be asking is whether Figma's business is in real trouble, given its sharp sell-off. Ultimately, it may depend on your outlook for artificial intelligence (AI) and what it might mean for the demand for Figma's software. With AI and chatbots, it's easier than ever for people to create polished images and designs. The concern may be that Figma's software isn't needed anymore, or at the very least, that its growth opportunities will dry up. Figma's software is more than just about design, however. It can help users build apps and code, and it can help people with no coding experience to build apps with the help of AI. What can be more telling for investors is the company's guidance, which can provide an indication of just how well the business is growing. In the company's most recent quarter, which went up until the end of September, Figma's revenue totaled $274 million and rose by 38% year over year. Its guidance fo...

20. Frozen (2013) Pathetic fallacy is the literary device in which the environment reflects a character’s mood. It is central to Disney’s animated classic, which is about a woman who gets so annoyed that she literally turns her surroundings into a perpetual winter. As such, she is responsible for untold miseries, not least the fact that her stroppiness directly caused the invention of Josh Gad’s annoying snowman. 19. The Shining (1980) Perhaps the defining movie on seasonal affective disorder. In The Shining, Jack Nicholson’s family suffer as he succumbs to the madness of snowbound isolation. Although the interior scenes are what really give the film its terrifying reputation, it’s worth remembering that none of the events would occur if the Overlook Hotel was easy to escape. Also a timely reminder that snow really takes the fun out of mazes. 18. Blade Runner (1982) Ridley Scott’s classic is a masterpiece of design, with its rain-drenched futuristic cityscapes playing as much of a role as any of the actual characters. Does the constant rain affect the plot? No, not really, although you’d have to imagine that everyone would be a lot less grimly miserable if the sun came out now and again. 17. Force Majeure (2014) View image in fullscreen The life-changing avalanche in Force Majeure. Photograph: TCD/Prod.DB/Alamy Remade in 2020 as Downhill, Ruben Östlund’s Force Majeure is more about how people react to perceived weather than the weather itself. It follows the repercussions for a man who, upon believing that an avalanche is about to hit, abandons his family and runs away. Everything is immediately undone, and what follows is excruciatingly hard to watch. 16. The Thing (1982) Ultimately weather isn’t the first thing you think about when you think about The Thing, because that would be the thing itself in all its nightmarishly grotesque glory. However, try to imagine the film in a lovely springtime meadow and it instantly loses all its power. Its Antarctic setting means...

A Russian container ship captain has been jailed for six years after an explosive collision in the North Sea off the coast of Yorkshire killed a crew member. Vladimir Motin, 59, was told by an Old Bailey judge that he had been a “serious accident waiting to happen” as he was jailed for manslaughter by gross negligence. A court heard that Motin had been on sole watch duty and failed to take any action to prevent his ship, the Solong, crashing into a stationary oil tanker, the Stena Immaculate. It caused an explosion and Mark Angelo Pernia, a 38-year-old Filipino national, died instantly in the resulting fire. His body was never recovered. Pernia had a five-year-old child at the time of the collision, but he never met his second child, who was born two months after his death. On Thursday, Mr Justice Andrew Baker said Motin had failed to keep a proper lookout, which amounted to a “wholesale failure of his duty” for an extended period of time. During the trial, Motin claimed he had pressed the wrong button when he tried to switch off autopilot and steer away from the tanker in the minutes before the crash. He denied he had been asleep or had left his post on the bridge. The judge said Motin’s account was “extremely problematic”, “improbable”, “extremely implausible” and “even worse” than the prosecution’s version of events. The basic facts of the collision “suggest a ship unaware of the ship ahead” and that was the “most likely” explanation, he said. The prosecution asserted that Motin had failed to keep a proper watch for a lengthy period of time and then failed to sound the alarm, summon help or warn either crew of the impending disaster. Jailing Motin, from St Petersburg, the judge told him: “You were a serious accident waiting to happen.” The experienced mariner had shown a “blatant disregard for the very high risk of death” and fallen prey to his own complacency and arrogance, the judge said. Motin was found guilty of manslaughter by gross negligence by a jury on M...

EUR Flat As ECB Leaves Rates Unch; Cable Drops On BoE's 'Dovish Hold' In a surprise to traders, The Bank of England came within a vote of cutting interest rates and predicted inflation will fall below its target, a closer-than-expected decision that revived hopes of a move next month. As Bloomberg reports, Governor Bailey was once again the swing voter in a 5-4 decision to leave rates unchanged at 3.75% , choosing to hold policy having cut at the last meeting in December. Bailey said in a statement that “there should be scope for some further reduction in bank rate this year.” In the accompanying monetary policy report, we also got a bit more insight into how the Bank of England sees the measures announced at November’s budget impacting the economy. The BOE delivered its verdict on Labour’s budget and growth: good in the short-run, bad in the long-run. Measures announced in November will boost real GDP in the next three years. Beyond that, tax rises will take centre stage and weigh on the economy. When asked if there is any scenario in which the BOE would need to hike rates, Bailey said that this was not under discussion at their meeting. This surprisingly dovish hold pushed cable lower... And gilt yields lower from overnight highs... The commentary and closely split decision also pushed rate-cut odds higher for later in 2026. Bailey says the rate-cut curve is in a “reasonable place” in a question about where the neutral rate lies, which the BOE made clear in its statement is highly uncertain. Following the BoE's 'Dovish hold', the ECB kept rates unchanged - as fully expected and reiterated its previous comments that it will follow a data-dependent and meeting-by-meeting approach to determining the appropriate monetary policy stance. In particular, the Governing Council's interest rate decisions will be based on its assessment of the inflation outlook and the risks surrounding it, in light of the incoming economic and financial data, as well as the dynamics of under...

TLDR Amazon reports Q4 2025 earnings Thursday after market close with revenue expected at $211.4 billion AWS exceeded Q3 targets with $33 billion revenue and plans to double capacity by 2027 UBS analyst raised price target to $311, calling Amazon a “coiled spring” for growth Capital expenditure estimates increased to $344 billion through 2027, up from $300 billion Company cutting 16,000 corporate jobs to streamline operations and reduce bureaucracy Amazon reports fourth-quarter 2025 earnings after the closing bell Thursday. Investors are watching closely for updates on Amazon Web Services performance. Amazon.com, Inc., AMZN Analysts expect revenue of $211.4 billion and adjusted earnings per share of $1.97. First-quarter guidance will also be key, with consensus estimates at $175.6 billion in revenue and $1.73 EPS. UBS analyst Stephen Ju raised his price target to $311 from $310 this week. He kept his Buy rating on the stock. Ju described Amazon as a “coiled spring” ready for growth. The catalyst is AWS capacity expansion and accelerating revenue growth. AWS Beats Expectations Amazon Web Services delivered strong third-quarter results in October. The cloud unit posted $33 billion in revenue, beating the $32.5 billion estimate. Management shared plans to double AWS capacity by 2027 during the earnings call. This aggressive expansion strategy has prompted analysts to revise their projections. UBS now forecasts total capital expenditures of $344 billion from Q4 2025 through Q4 2027. The previous estimate stood at $300 billion. AWS-specific CapEx jumped from $225 billion to $260 billion over the same timeframe. The market hasn’t fully priced in AWS revenue doubling by 2028, according to UBS. Cash Flow Upside The increased spending could unlock $20 billion in additional free cash flow by 2028. That’s based on UBS projections for AWS growth. This marks the second consecutive quarter of AWS acceleration. Ju expects investor confidence to strengthen as results confirm the tr...

Dan Thomas, a former Conservative leader of Barnet council, has been announced by Nigel Farage as Reform UK’s leader in Wales, three months before Senedd elections in which the hard-right party could win the most seats in the country. Farage received a standing ovation before he introduced Thomas at a sold-out rally of approximately 1,000 people at the International Convention Centre Wales, near Newport, on Thursday morning. Journalists were jeered and booed during the media conference. Thomas led Barnet council between 2019 and 2022, when the north London council was seized by Labour, and defected to Farage’s Reform party last summer. He stood down in December as a councillor for Finchley Church End – long synonymous with Margaret Thatcher – to move back to his south Wales valleys home town, Blackwood. Farage, asked whether he had chosen an outsider to the Welsh branch of the party in an effort to distance Reform from the former Welsh leader, Nathan Gill, who is in prison for accepting bribes to make pro-Russia statements in the European parliament, said: “Why did I pick Dan? He tells a story of someone who had to go away but loves Wales so much he wants his own children to grow up in a similar environment. “And above all, because he’s battle hardened … Running budgets and facing opposition to development and many other things, and I think Reform UK here in Wales deserves to be led by somebody who’s been there before and will keep a calm head through the good and bad.” Thomas said: “We have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to smash Labour’s failing grip in Wales … I will pour my heart and soul into fighting for every vote. We’re fighting to win because this is the last chance for Wales. We are at a turning point.” Before announcing Thomas’s appointment, Farage introduced James Evans as the party’s newest Conservative defector. Evans, the Senedd member for Brecon and Radnorshire, was sacked by the Tories last month because of suspicions he was planning to join Refor...

e-crow/iStock via Getty Images By Christopher Gannatti, CFA Quarters of Adjustment, Priced in Sessions The January 30 selloff in gold's price was not a repudiation of gold's longer-term investment case, but it could have been a violent correction within an already elevated volatility regime. By late January, gold prices had reached levels that reflected not only heightened macro anxiety but also increasingly compressed time horizons. Moves that would historically have unfolded over quarters, or even years, were instead realized over days. After reaching an intraday high near $5,595 per ounce on January 29, gold reversed sharply, falling below $5,000 intraday the following session, highlighting how stretched momentum and positioning had become 1 . Placing January 30, 2026, into History April 2013: momentum breaks reset the clearing price, not the thesis 2 . On April 15, 2013, gold fell roughly 9% in a single session, then its largest one-day decline since the early 1980s. That episode marked a violent reset after an extended narrative-driven rally, shifting the market from macro storytelling to microstructure dynamics, forced selling, exchange-traded fund (ETF) outflows, and a rapid pickup in physical demand. The lesson was not that gold "failed," but that crowded trades reprice discontinuously. March 2020: safe havens get sold in liquidity events 3 . During the COVID-era "dash for cash," gold declined alongside equities as investors sold liquid assets to meet margin calls and reduce leverage. Research from the New York Fed and the Office of Financial Research shows that in systemic stress, gold can temporarily behave less like a hedge and more like a source of balance-sheet liquidity. Large gold selloffs cluster around regime repricing events 4 . Gold's sharpest down days tend to coincide with abrupt shifts in expectations around monetary policy credibility, real interest rates, and the U.S. dollar. The January 30, 2026, decline fits this pattern, as markets rapidly...
